Note 2 – Liquidity and Going Concern Assessment

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. Management assesses liquidity and going concern uncertainty in the Company’s consolidated financial statements to determine whether there is sufficient cash on hand and working capital, including available borrowings under financing arrangements, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date the financial statements are issued, which is referred to as the “look-forward period,” as defined in GAAP. As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to management, management considered various scenarios, forecasts, projections, estimates and made certain key assumptions, including the timing and nature of projected cash expenditures or programs, its ability to delay or curtail expenditures or programs, its expected debt service and convertible note repayment obligations, and its ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, among other factors.

 

For the six-months ended June 30, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $14.0 million and used cash in operating activities of $10.4 million. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2.8 million and an accumulated deficit of $267.4 million. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $33.5 million and current liabilities of $13.5 million, including current portions of debt and convertible note obligation.

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2026, and through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $0.4 million from sales of common stock under its at-the-market offering program. See Note 9, Subsequent Events.

 

The Company has generated operating losses and has experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception. The Company has not generated significant revenues and expects to incur further losses in the future, particularly from continued development of its clinical-stage diagnostic tests and commercialization activities. The future of the Company as an operating business will depend on its ability to obtain sufficient capital through equity or debt financings, licensing or distribution arrangements, or other strategic transactions and/or generate revenues as may be required to sustain its operations. Management plans to address the above as needed by (a) granting licenses and/or distribution rights to third parties in exchange for specified up-front milestones, royalty, or other payments, (b) obtaining additional financing through debt or equity transactions, (c) securing additional grant funds, and (d) developing and commercializing its products in an efficient manner. Management continues to exercise tight cost controls to conserve cash. As part of the Company’s cash conservation efforts, directors and certain employees have elected to exchange a portion of their fees earned or paid in cash or salary, respectively, for RSUs in the Company for a period of up to twelve months.

 

On February 6, 2026, VolitionRx Limited (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards set forth in Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide requiring a company to have stockholders’ equity of at least $6.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years.  The Notice also indicated that the Company was not currently eligible for any exemption in Section 1003(a) of the Company Guide (including the exemption provided for companies with total value of market capitalization exceeding $50 million among other things). 

 

The Company was required to submit a plan to the NYSE American by March 8, 2026, advising of actions it has taken or will take to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by August 6, 2027. The Company submitted a plan prior to the deadline. 

 

On April 22, 2026, the Company received a notification (the “Acceptance Letter”) from the NYSE American that the Company’s previously submitted plan to regain compliance with the NYSE American’s listing standards (the “Plan”) was accepted. In the Acceptance Letter, the NYSE American granted the Company until August 6, 2027 (the “Plan Period”) to regain compliance with the continued listing standards. 

 

During the Plan Period, the Company will be subject to periodic review by the NYSE American on its progress with the goals and initiatives outlined in the Plan. The Company intends to take all reasonable measures available to regain compliance during the Plan Period. If the Company does not regain compliance with the NYSE American listing standards by August 6, 2027, or if the Company does not make sufficient progress consistent with the Plan during the Plan Period, then NYSE American may initiate delisting proceedings. 

 

The Acceptance Letter has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s shares of common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE American during the Plan Period, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other listing requirements of the NYSE American. The Common Stock will continue to trade under the symbol “VNRX”. The Acceptance Letter does not affect the Company’s ongoing business operations or its reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraphs and to eventually attain profitable operations.

 

Management assessed the mitigating effect of these plans to determine if it is probable that the plans would be effectively implemented within one year after the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued and when implemented, would mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These plans are subject to market conditions and reliance on third parties, and there is no assurance that effective implementation of the Company’s plans will result in the necessary funding to continue current operations and satisfy current and expected debt obligations. The Company has implemented short-term cash preservation and cost-saving initiatives to conserve cash. Although the Company has raised additional capital subsequent to June 30, 2026, management expects that additional funding will be required to continue current operations and satisfy current and expected obligations during the look-forward period. The Company concluded that these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and their carrying amounts, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
